The 2024 Scottish Open (officially the 2024 BetVictor Scottish Open) is an upcoming professional snooker tournament that will take place from 9 to 15 December 2024 at the Meadowbank Sports Centre in Edinburgh, Scotland. It's the eleventh ranking event of the 2024–25 season (following the 2024 Shoot Out and preceding the 2025 German Masters) and the third of four tournaments in the season's Home Nations Series (following the 2024 English Open and the 2024 Northern Ireland Open and preceding the 2025 Welsh Open). The winner will receive £100,000 from a total prize fund of £550,400, the Stephen Hendry trophy, and a place in the 2025 Champion of Champions invitational event.
Gary Wilson is the twice-defending champion, having successfully defended his 2022 title by defeating Noppon Saengkham 9–5 in the 2023 final.
Format
The event will take place from 9 to 15 December 2024 at the Meadowbank Sports Centre in Edinburgh, Scotland. Qualifying took place from 28 to 30 October 2024 at the Ponds Forge International Sports Centre in Sheffield, England.
The WST implemented a new format for the four Home Nations events this season. In qualifying round one, players seeded 65–96 face those seeded 97–128. In qualifying round two, the 32 round one winners play those seeded 33–64. The 32 round two winners then play the top 32 seeds.
All matches are played as best of seven frames until the quarter-finals, which are best of nine. The semi-finals are best of 11, and the final is a best-of-17-frame match played over two sessions.
The qualifying rounds were broadcast by Discovery+ in Europe (including the United Kingdom and Ireland) and by the CBSA-WPBSA Academy WeChat Channel and Huya Live in China. They were available from Matchroom Sport in all other territories.
